Suggest Treatment For Severe Restless Leg Syndrome

Hi I have ro have a cervical discogram. I unnderstand the doctor will insert a needle in a few discs. Is he looking for nerve related issues? I had a replacement of a plate in my neck last year and within 3 months I began to have terrible thoracic pain. Turns out I have 3 herniated disks in the thoracic spine. I also have terrible restless leg syndrome that has gotten much worse this year. Is that related to the back nerve issues?
